Jackfruit. For a while it was the ‘go to’ vegan option for places to offer; jackfruit smothered in awfully sweet BBQ sauce. The texture is softer than anything it’s trying to mimic, It’s messy, and flavourless.
Honestly, I in general don’t really like when a meat is substituted for a food that is not a primarily protein source. Like replacing meat for cauliflower or jackfruit, as opposed to something with legumes or lentils
Those increasingly popular substitutes mimicking meat as closely as possible. I don’t want to second guess everything I eat and honestly, I don’t think any of them are tasty. I liked things more when they did their own stuff.
Now, I know I’m not the target audience. They help other people to reduce their meat intake or even to switch completely and that is great and all, but I’m still sad about the good stuff disappearing.
